I've thought about bringing the kids but never have. Do you stay "in" Broad Bay or do you meander closer to 18th street where the show is based? Isn't there a beach in Broad bay or do you guys raft up?

What are the rules for boating relating to the event? I can't help but notice that there isn't a SINGLE boat off shore in the event photos which clearly show the center stage portion of the coastal waters - obviously the website doesn't say $hit about boating.

I'm thinking about doing this, but I'm also 110% committed to the Lake Anna jet boat races the following weekend since my friends live over there and that's my typical weekend spot anyways. With gas as expensive as it is (and boat / tow rig using 93 octane this year) it's going to hurt doing back-to-back 4-hr tows each weekend!
